Simpli Home Chests of Drawers recall: Serious Tip-Over Hazard (Recall Alert)

Simpli Home Recalls Chests of Drawers Due to Serious Tip-Over Hazard (Recall Alert)

Why was Simpli Home Chests of Drawers recalled?

The recalled chests are unstable if they are not anchored to the wall, posing a serious tip-over and entrapment hazard that can result in death or injuries to children. The chests do not comply with the performance requirements of the U.S. voluntary industry standard (ASTM F2057-14).

What should I do if I have this product?

Consumers should immediately stop using any recalled chest that is not properly anchored to the wall and place into an area that children cannot access. Contact Simpli Home for a choice between two options: full refund or a free tip-over restraint kit with a $100 credit towards an in-home installation of the device (with proof of service). Simpli Home is contacting consumers who purchased the recalled chests directly. Contact: Simpli Home toll-free at 866-518-0120 from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, by email at [email protected], or online at www.simpli-home.com and click on the “Customer Support” for more information.
